Main First Law Of Resurrection Discussion

Let's talk about how Agent Coulson's death was a MAJOR TURNING POINT in the Avengers, and then in the very first episode of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. he himself explains that it was all an elaborate hoax.

"This is one of the trademarks of The X-Files; no one really stays dead."

No one? Really? What about Scully's father and sister or both Mulder's parents? What about Max Fenig, X and Deep Throat? I mean, sure there are examples (CSM, Mulder x3 as the entry notes), but I wouldn't say it's particularly bad about this compared to similar shows... Anyway, just wanted to get somebody else's opinion on this as I've never seen the last few seasons so.. maybe everyone really does come back!
